The bird with blue feet attracts the opposite sex with its unique dance.

The blue-footed booby is one of the most bizarre and wonderful seabirds in the world. With its bright blue feet, blue-grey plumage and playful personality, the blue-footed booby is sure to attract the attention of curious onlookers.

Blue-footed boobies are a 'specialty' of the beautiful ancient Galapagos islands, a strange island located off the Pacific Ocean, which is also famous for its 400kg tortoises and giant seagulls.

The Galapagos Islands are Ecuador's national park and a precious marine reserve. The main language on the islands is Spanish.

In Spanish, the blue-footed booby's name means 'clown' or 'foolish person' because of its silly gait that always makes viewers laugh.

The head of this bird is usually brown, the belly is white, the tail and wings are black.

The highlight of the adorable booby bird is its bright blue feet. The blue color of the booby's feet is partly due to the nutrients in fresh fish.

The booby's feet play a very important role in 'establishing relationships' with the opposite sex.

Boobies that have bright blue legs, the brighter the color on the legs, the healthier they are, the better the quality of their genes and thus will 'give' them more beautiful children.

During the breeding season, from June to August every year, they have very interesting mandatory 'rituals' before 'coming home'.

If the booby bird has its eye on its friend, it will point its beak, tail, and wing tips up towards the sky and then chirp and stomp its feet continuously in a playful dance, circling around its friend and showing off its feet.

Boobies lay about 2 - 3 eggs. Thanks to their large feet, instead of using their wings and feathers to incubate the eggs, they use their feet to warm them.

Exactly 45 days later, the eggs will hatch, from then on, the parents will take turns finding more food and bringing it back to spit out for their chicks. However, the parents are only responsible for raising their chicks for the next 2 months so that they can live independently.

They can dive and swim underwater to find prey. Interestingly, they are not afraid of humans, but instead actively approach to observe with curious eyes.

Although blue-footed boobies are relatively abundant, they face a number of threats, including habitat loss, overfishing, and pollution. Conservation efforts are underway to protect these birds and their habitat.
